See you in a week DH

I'm here, I'm here. Not for long though .

Quick question, have you seen the mock ups for the new Nike kits? Have a look at the Pats . Any how I'm off to watch the Wembley high lights and then crash out during SNF .

What a f***ing weekend for us both!

9-0 - seriously?!?!

See you in a week DH

The Turnovers by Jets and Receivers from both teams dropping the ball, along with the Packers Killing the Jets running game made for an eye bleeding 3 hours

Still a boring win is still a win, considering i thought the Jets were the faves going into the game

A win for the Pats topped it off as well

Cowboys @ lambeau field next week

How the **** did that happen . Our recievers had better get the finger out and learn how to play the game and wtf happened to our running game. Can't believe we throw it away and how anyone who gets shut out can be considerd superbowl contenders is beyond me. Still that's what being a Jets fan is all about and I guess I've got what I deserve this week.
On a plus point think we've got the Lions next week so all isnt lost just yet.


Seen that Favre started the game tonight. As much as I hate him some of our (Hibs ) players should have a look at themselves. Broken ankle indeed.

Both teams missed big catches that would have pretty much won it the way the game was going. Anyone know how Favre is? Looked like a sore one. I think ALL footballers should take note.

what does this mean? does it mean let him go?

The NFL Network’s Michael Lombardi reports the Minnesota Vikings have waived WR Randy Moss.

To an extent. We have passed the trade deadline so the way I think it works is that he is free to sign for a club who will pick up his contract which is around $3 million for the rest of the season. Now the catch here is that he can't just sign for anyone. Again I'm not 100% but I think it works similar to the draft system in that the weakest team in the league gets first option so in this case it would be the Bills, then Cowboys etc, etc.
Hope that kind of makes sence.
Can't believe they gave up a 3rd round pick for one touchdown .

wonder why they got rid of him

[Sylar]

It confirms my personal feeling that we'd done a cracking bit of business in trading him for a very good draft pick

watched my Saints v steelers, good competitive game, troy tuavalu or whatever his name is, sorry, is some player, liked how the saints kept blitzing, need more cover in defence though, also really need bush + thomas back soon as.

The Wembley game was eye-bleeding until the 4th... Good day out though!

Great weekend of results though!

As for Moss, apparently he slammed the coaching, said he hated Minnesota and he wants back to New England.

Tebow scored a decent run in but I was a little disappointed he didnt play more of the game.

Ah well, we still have the draft pick, money to spare in the budget cap and we are heading to the play offs... Its a shame as Moss was a great player for us for a while but we survive.

We're every bit AS good, if not better without him this season, as we have so many options right now, and encouragingly, so many of them in their rookie season!

With the draft picks we have accumulated through some brilliant bits of business from Belichick et al, we're going to have power to be competitive for many years to come!

Great to be a Pats fan right now - this past 8 years has felt like karma redressing itself from the years of being the worst team in the NFL!

True! We have 2 picks for the first four rounds this year dont we? Brilliant.

[Gatecrasher]

Jets 10-20 Lions

Bills currently beating bears as well

EDIT Bears just went 3 up

Browns 34-14 Pats

[Sylar]

Bad BAD result for us away to a simply much better Cleveland side. Our offense was utterly shocking tonight and I'm not surprised with the outcome! Cleveland played superbly tonight, using imagination all over their offense! Brady had some good numbers tonight, but wasn't helped out at all by a very ineffective offensive line!

Ach well, it was nice to be on top for a week - good win for the Jets against an ever improving Lions side - not exactly a blistering performance (LT only getting 55 yards - an off-week for sure ), but grinding these results out is the difference between playoffs and an early off-season.

Michigan game was a nightmare yesterday! No doubt brilliant for the neutral, but my finger nails are non-existent! I've bit my left thumbnail so low, it hurts like a bitch right now

[DH1875]

Missed the Jets game as didn't get back till late. Seems we were lucky again winning in overtime. Anyone see any of the game? If so how did we play? Great news that the Pats got rolled over. How did they play as got to admit I had them down for the win. Did you have a look at the Nike Jersey yet?

When did the Bills start playing games in Toronto and how many times a season do they do that? I can't believe I didn't know they done that.

Just saw the highlights of the Jets game - looked like they were frustrated by a pretty competent looking Detroit defense actually. Lots of mistakes throughout the game, but they rallied well after going 20-10 down, so a good night.

We didn't play disasterously - made a few mistakes on our offensive line, giving up fumbles and failing to advance much, but Brady had some great numbers (leading pass stats) - just failed to do it too regularly - it wasn't as much that we were bad - Cleveland were pretty damned impressive

I did have a look at the Nike Jersey - I assume you're referring to the red one, with the stars and stripes on it? It would be a third kit at best, with the blue and white being the home and away respectively. The blue and white ones are fine to me, but the red third kit is a little over-the-top in my eyes.

[Gatecrasher]

Clay Matthews is a BEAST!!!

And the cowboys suck big time just finishing watching it now, 1:20 to go

6-3 to top of NFC North now onto a bye Go Pack Go!!!!

According to Ed Werder and Chris Mortensen, Wade Phillips has been fired as Head Coach of the Dallas Cowboys and replaced by Jason Garrett:

We got them next week so should be intresting. Season looks like it's heating up nice and should be a good case of cat and mouse between use and us between now and the end of the season.

Not sure we talking about the same jersey's cause the Pats ones I saw really were awful. To be fair I haven't seen the Jets ones but the other teams I've seen look as if Nike are trying to modernise/jazz them up.

He is having some season that's for sure. Is it true you picked him up as a non drafted free agent or did I just make that up. How's AJ Hawk playing?

You right, the Cowboys look awful.

I'm sure he was drafted, around 7th pick though a more educated person might correct that

AJ is playing well although a bit quieter than last season.

Al Harris has been released which is a bit of a shock to me.

And I'm sure the bills still play in buffalo I thought it was an international series type game

I know they still play in Buffalo but apparently they been playing some games in Toronto. It's not an international series type thing as they doing it of their own back. I'm thinking a move could be on the cards if the league will allow a team from Canada in.

Interesting, do teams move about a lot?

And with regards to the Nike kit, the blue/white ones are below the red photoshop effort (which looks like Captain America's uniform...)

HUGE weekend next weekend in the AFC East race - I REALLY don't fancy our chances away to Pittsburgh, who yet again, have a brutal defense.

Time will tell, but I think you'll go back to being a game ahead next weekend

Teams have been known to move from city to city for example the Indy Colts were once the Baltimore Colts. Titans were once the Houston Oilers IIRC?
